#095- Lee Wong: Is This Patriotic Enough? The Story Behind Viral Video Combating Asian Discrimination


Listen Later

This week I have an extremely powerful conversation with Lee Wong about the discrimination that people in the Asian community faces both currently and in the past in America. Mr. Wong shares the story of how he was filmed speaking about this very issue at a West Chester, Ohio trustee meeting where he voiced his unhappiness of people questioning his patriotism because he looks or speaks differently than them. What people at this meeting did not know was that he is an US Army veteran and revealed the scars on his chest to prove it. It was a thought provoking speech and one that went viral. You will not want to miss this one!
